Starting his career at Matsubara, Araújo joined Coritiba in 1997.[2] Having success at Coritiba, he was called up by Brazil U-23 team challenging for a spot in the squad that played the 2000 Olympic Games.[3] He joined São Paulo in 2001, but after an unsuccessful year, he returned to Coritiba in 2002.

He later had spells at Noroeste and Santa Cruz before a spell in Portugal with S.C. Beira-Mar.[6] Reginaldo Araújo moved back to Brazil to play for Criciúma and returned to Paraná state in his last career years.
He retired in 2010 after discovering a heart condition[7] and worked with the youth team and as a director of football at Corinthians Paulista[8] and was appointed as an assistant manager of PSTC in December 2015.[9]
On 11 January 2016, he died after suffering a heart attack during a training of PSTC.[10][11]
